Using a revolutionary approach that combines Biblical study with scientific inquiry, Schroeder examines how the idea of God as loving and all-powerful contrasts with the evil that is inherent in our world. He argues that the God portrayed in the Bible is absolutely compatible with the world as we know it today, and our own misconceptions create the disparity. God According to God shows that the concept of God that atheists rail against and believers defend is actually inaccurate. Sure to provoke much controversy and debate, God According to God merges theology and physics into a fascination discussion about the nature of the Creator. Gerald L.
